About Whitegates West Derby

At our Whitegates West Derby Branch we have a team of staff with over 60 years Estate Agency experience who are pleased to offer help and advice on the Purchase, Sale or Letting of your home. However, we are more than aware that some clients cannot always take time out to visit the office in person, which is why phone calls and e-mails are equally as important as personal visits. Gail Loller, the Franchisee and originally from the area, knows how important her local knowledge is and believes it to be a major factor in helping her and the team to build a Market Leading Branch within the area. Gail's motto has always been 'To aim to treat all Staff and Customers how she would like to be treated herself, at all times'. This she has always implemented, gaining a first rate reputation and recognition from her peers. "Well you don't win the Customer Service Award at your Regional Property Awards without having something special about you"!

Whitegates were so helpful during the purchase of our property. We dealt with Ross throughout the purchase process and received a fantastic service from start to finish. We were kept up to date and received very quick responses to emails and when we initially didn’t get the property we offered on we were immediately invited into the branch to discuss what we were looking for to help us find the property we were looking for in an incredibly tough and competitive market. Without the help and support provided by Ross and the team at Whitegates we definitely wouldn’t have found our perfect property and we are extremely grateful for the service. Thank you!

First time I've used Whitegates to sell a property, but it won't be the last. My contact Caitlin Suleyman is ultra professional, very responsive and quick to pass on information and deal with queries. To be honest, I've had a positive reaction from the rest of Caitlin's colleagues too, so I'm confident that my property sale is in safe and professional hands.

Spoke to Gail to ask for help on a project of mine, nothing to do with sales or letting, but she had time to listen and helped me find what i was looking for. Even if I got all the church choirs in Liverpool to the sing her praises it still would not be enough! Thank you! Flowers attached xPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Having purchased several properties over the years, this was the first time I've worked through Whitegate, West Derby and it was the easiest transaction of all. The communication, help and support was second to none and the straight talking, knowledgeable honesty especially from Brenda Marsden was above and beyond any Estate Agent I've dealt with in the past. I can whole heartedly recommend them to any buyer or seller. Thank you!!

Whitegates were recommended to me by a family member and so far they haven't disappointed. Ethan accompanied Gail to take photos and develop a floorplan. He was proficient and professional in the task and the details he produced are excellent. There were a couple of changes to be made and he did this very promptly. I look forward to the next stage of my house selling journey with Whitegates.

Rebecca managed a potentially difficult tenant departure very well. She clarified succinctly and quickly all the legal requirements around the checkout report and achieved an amicable and fair resolution of all the outstanding financial and property issues. Communication and advice during the 'negotiations' was appropriate, prompt and effective. Thank you Rebecca and other colleagues involved over the time of the tenancy. Overall Whitegates managed the tenancy well, very well.

ILLEGAL PRACTICES BY WHITEGATES

Just awful - please avoid this estate agent. We were looking to buy a house, we put an offer in on a property, and because the estate agent felt it was ‘too low’ she didn’t even put it to the seller - this is ILLEGAL. We then upped our offer and she still didn’t give it to the seller - again ILLEGAL. Apparently she felt personally slighted/offended that we had offered lower than the asking price for some reason and was ‘teaching us a lesson’ 😂

don't call them, they are very slow, they are not professional, I wanted to rent a commercial space from them, they placed me from one to another, emails sent so that I can see a commercial space with appointments in a few weeks, seriously? so much trouble to see a space with the potential to rent it and they did nothing

Alessia · 5 February 2025

Agent replied · 28 January 2025

We want to clarify that we do not handle commercial properties, and our services are focused exclusively on residential properties. We believe there may have been some confusion in your inquiry. If you could kindly remove or update your review to reflect this, it would be greatly appreciated. We recommend reaching out to a commercial real estate agency for your needs. Thank you for your understanding.
